Definitely a good value if you need specific PID options! In case anyone is looking for it, this app WILL read cam sensor offset (cmt) on GM's vortex motors. Lot cheaper than a shop or buying a high-end scanner.

Great app with useful info and data logging. It is also nice to see if your monitors are ready before an emissions test. The extended parameters for cars are around $10, and it's absolutely worth it when you need to check something out.

AUSSIES! HSV LSA motors 4 CLUBBY, GTS, etc. AD all vehicles I list below: '09 CHEV TAHOE LFA hybrid 6.0 (trust me!) for most PIDS, inc: IAT2, FUEL PSI, separate cylinder KNOCK, KNOCK RTARD, OIL TeMP, COOLANT TeMP (basically all PIDS 4 LSA). ADD: '09 PontiacG8, TRANS TEMP PID for LSA+LS3 ADD: '09 CTSV LSA, randomPIDS. **Make sure U click "VALIDATE PIDS" for each vehicle U add. Heaps of PIDS work with '17 SS, HSV LS3. NOTE!!! U Have 2 buy "2009 GM extended parameters" for ALL of the ABOVE 2 work

The app itself works well when it works, but the issue is that it doesn't work consistently. I have a dedicated android head unit in the car on which this app is installed. Every third day it logs out by itself, and I have to log in again, set the units and parameters again manually. Even more frustrating is the so called 'customer support', who bluntly says that it's a problem with the head unit, whereas other obd apps are working perfectly fine. Waste of money to subscribe.

This app is glitchy and had trouble connecting to my OBD Link reader 80% of the time. I switched to a new phone, and now it won't connect at all. Waiting for a response from tech support.

Would not connect to my Foseal OBD-II reader. Possibly because it was trying to use BT? Ended up downloading Torque Pro.
